KEY POINTS

  • •Google and Amazon submitted a joint announcement for a multicloud connection service on December 1, 2025.
  • •This new tool promises companies can create a private, speedy connection between AWS and Google Cloud within minutes.
  • •AWS’s catastrophic October outage affected services like Fortnite, Alexa, and Snapchat, prompting this collaborative solution.
  • •Next year, AWS plans to extend this cloud interconnect feature to include Microsoft Azure.

In a plot twist that got Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud to forget their age-old cloud rivalry, they unveiled a new multicloud link on December 1, 2025, designed to glue their data clouds together 'within minutes.' This breakthrough allegedly saves businesses from hours (or weeks) of previously torturous manual setups involving physical cables and confusing networking components, something only true tech wizards survived. AWS, still nursing last October's epic outage that knocked out Fortnite, Alexa, and Snapchat, will soon charm Microsoft Azure into this party too. With a proactive failure system boasting claims of ‘detecting and reacting to failures before customers even notice,’ all we can say is, humans might be obsolete before our clouds fully get their act together.
